Ozzy & Drix is an American animated television series based on the 2008 film Osmosis Jones. It centers on Osmosis "Ozzy" Jones, a street-smart white blood cell, and Drix, a stoic cold pill, who battle germs and viruses inside the body of teenage boy Hector Cruz. The series is set in a stylized version of the human body, which resembles a city where microorganisms and cells are anthropomorphic.[1]
At the beginning of the series, Osmosis "Ozzy" Jones (Phil LaMarr), a white blood cell with little respect for authority, and Drix (Jeff Bennett), a strait-laced and by-the-books cold pill, pursue a scarlet fever bacterium (Tim Curry). During the chase, the three get sucked up by a mosquito from their overweight, fast-food guzzling host body Frank DeTorre (Bennett) and are transported to the fit, healthy body of a teenage boy named Hector Cruz (Justin Cowden). After defeating the virus and settling into their new home, Ozzy and Drix are installed as private investigators, vowing to protect Hector's well-being and also help him through the trials of adolescence along the way.
Supporting characters include Maria Amino (Tasia Valenza), a white blood cell cop who is highly skilled at fighting; Mayor Paul Spryman (Alanna Ubach), the immature teenage mayor of the city of Hector; Chief Gluteus (Jim Cummings), a gruff old muscle cell who serves as the city's police chief and Maria's superior; Ellen Patella (Vivica A. Fox), an attorney-at-law who helps cells find homes in Hector, and whom Ozzy is attracted to; and the Brain Cell Advisors (Pat Fraley), advisors who help Mayor Spryman run the city due to Spryman being inexperienced with his job.
Recurring characters include The Mole (Jeffrey Tambor), a klutzy former secret agent who holds information on what is happening within Hector; Dander (Frank Welker), Drix's pet dog germ formed from the saliva of Hector's dog Uno; Christine Kolchuck (Kimberly Brooks), a kind student who is Hector's love interest; Travis Lum (Rob Paulsen), Hector's classmate and best friend who looks out for him; Ernst Strepfinger (Brad Garrett in season 1, Cummings in season 2), a villainous germ who uses a gang of germs and viruses to carry out his dirty work; Uno (Welker), Hector's dog whom he adopted in "Oh, My Dog"; and Hector's protective parents (Ubach and Joe Lala), who look after Hector's health and his attitude.
Unlike the original film it was spun-off from, Ozzy & Drix was entirely animated and contained no live-action scenes. The series was also less violent and contained less adult humor than the film. The voices of Ozzy and Drix were recast with LaMarr replacing Chris Rock as Ozzy and Bennett replacing David Hyde Pierce as Drix. In multiple episodes, producer Ron Myrick integrated stock footage from the original film, such as the human body's traffic and the dam bursting in the runny nose.
Ozzy and Drix (not counting Frank as he only appears in the first episode) are the only characters to return. Ozzy's girlfriend Leah, along with Chief, Tom Colonic, Mrs. Boyd, Shane and Bob do not appear in the series.
